Quantum Torps not doing enough damage?

edited October 2010 in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, but my Quantum Torps seem to be hitting for less damage than my photons. (Both torps have same skill levels, so that's not a factor.) Photons have no problem hitting for over 5000, while my quantums are mired in the low 4000s

Anyone else seeing something like this? :confused:

    Do you have consoles that affect photon / quantum damage?

    Compare and contrast what the reported damage of the torpedo is when you mouseover it in the weapons bar.

    Are you possibly running Phonton Consuls instead of generic Warhead units?

    I can't say I've experienced this, but yeah check that you're not using photon torpedo consoles. Also, keep in mind abilities like high yield 3 actually lower the yield of each torpedo (because that makes so much sense ...) so a single high yield 3 or 2 torpedo will do less damage than a plain ole non-yielded one.

    No torp consoles.
    Appropriate torp skill at level 9.
    High Yield is same (HY2)
    Running the same Deferi daily missions on same difficulty.
    There is not one thing I have that makes Photon skill different than Quantum skill.

    Since my skills and consoles and enemies are the same, my first thought was some program issue. Like how Cannon Scattershot got over-buffed in that one patch a while back.
